Hi, if u are unable to get a seller, I m offering to buy it for $100. Thx.

Is this workshop still on? I m interested to be on the "mingle list"? LMK. Thx.

Have SMSed you. Thx.

Thx for the sympathy the purple carpet anem. was a real beaut .. thrived in my tank for >2mths w/o problems. I put it down to the phosphate removal enzyme use altho .. change of CA's behaviour was a wk prior to the GBPO4 use .. but I guess the treatment simply hasten it to any earlier demise. There is still a missing pc to the puzzle?? Don't know the 2 types of species u mention .. will do some research on them ..

Hi there, Thx for yr note & possible explanation. Let me clarify your points: 1) is probably the best bet as this CA was the nearest to the MH lights (compared to the others which were 15ins closer to the sandbed. 2) not a possibility becos I never target feed anything except my sun coral .. mostly douse entire tank with rotifiers, mysis shrimp, coral food mix 1-2x a wk w/ the protein skimmer shut off for an hr. 3) It actually stayed on the same side of the tank & only moved vertically upwards. The other 2 carpet anem. are located in the middle & 1 at the far left, opposite from the purple carpt anem. 4)the purple carpet anenome was already a host to 2 ocellaris clowns and they were bought together as a package 5) Not sure why the GoodbyePO4 treatment would affect this particular (otherwise healthy) CA & not the other 2 CAs .. it does not appear if any other LS in the tank has been affected by the treatment. I have today removed the CA from the refugium as parts of it looked like it was starting to rot. It is obviously dead as it smelled bad during removal. I hv doused some nitrifying bacteria into the filtration system (just in case!).

Upzzzzzzz

Does anyone know if the achilles tang that came in a month ago still available at Reborn?

Hi fellow reefers, Thought I'd ask some advice regarding a purple carpet anenome in my tank. I bought this together w/ 2 ocellaris clowns from Henry's abt 2mths ago. It w/nt cheap! Anyway, after intro to my tank, it shifted positions abt 4 times b4 it finally settled down on a rock high up near the MH. It actually moved upwards fr rocks close to the sandbed. The last couple of weeks, I noticed it contracting to almost nothing when the lights went off at night. 2 days ago, it fell off its perch onto the sandbed. I have just managed to retrieve it (w/ great difficulty) & hv moved it to the refugium (just in case!). It is still blue & shrunken but am not sure if it is dead?? I hv 2 other carpet anenome (blue & green) thriving well so m puzzled why this 1 has behaved the way it has. My tank did unfortunately hv a 1 day chiller problem 2wks ago which brought up the temp to 32degC for 36 hrs b4 it was rectified. I have also just finished a 4-day course of GoodbyePO4 treatment wh has brought my PO4 levels (fr 0.5mg/L to 0.05 in 4days). Can't think of anything else what wld affect it as the enclosed ecosystm is highly buffered & other than the PO4 levels, all other water parameters within acceptable levels. Does have any constructive comments to this mystery?

CORRECTION: Apologies, realise its a 473ml sized bottle bought from Iwarna last month. I have 2 bottles to trade .. basically looking for compatible aquarium cleaning crew.
